This week, we chat with acclaimed cartoonist Ivan Brunetti. Ivan’s work has been seen in the New Yorker and he is currently writing children’s comics for TOON Books including the upcoming Shapes and Shapes. His brilliant nonfiction book Cartooning: Philosophy and Practice won a 2012 Eisner Award, and today he hops in the Time Machine with us to revisit the first week of Peanuts strips. Plus: Rain. Rain. Rain. Rain.
Ivan mentions McSweeney's Quarterly Concern #13 from 2004, also An Anthology of Graphic Fiction, Cartoons, and True Stories from 2006.
